Lamed The wrongdoer is borrowing and does not repay, But the righteous one shows favour and gives.
He who shows favour to the poor lends to יהוה, And He repays his deed.
He covets greedily all day long, But the righteous gives and does not withhold.
Sow your seed in the morning, and until evening do not let your hand rest; since you do not know which prosper, this or that, or whether both alike are good.
“Therefore, O sovereign, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and break off your sins by righteousness, and your crookednesses by showing favour to the poor – your prosperity might be extended.”
“But give in kindness of that which is within, and see, all are clean to you.
“Instead, if your enemy hungers, feed him; if he thirsts, give him a drink, for in so doing you shall heap coals of fire on his head.”
And do not forget to do good and to share, for with such slaughter offerings Elohim is well pleased.
For Elohim is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love which you have shown toward His Name, in that you have attended to the set-apart ones, and still attend.
Clean and undefiled religion before the Elohim and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
